hm...i never used luglocks before....but i have an idea...im sure theres only 1 lock per wheel so i would say just use 3 regular lugs and ride like that for now....scary but it'll be temporary..i've actually drove my car with 3 lugs before on each wheel and no wheels went loose or anything... or if you have 8 lugs, just use those and swap in the lock when you get your new key..other than that, i wouldnt have any other advice....
